Yeah... I might rethink the amount of boost you're intending.

I'm pretty sure the V3 Head Unit is capable but I'm no so certain that the block is.

yeah trust me I've been hearing about the block splitting scenarios for years and I know the issues. Let me see if I can share this link to this stock block vortech:

Now don't get me wrong I know there are concerns and the car above was a stock block build but not a stroker. With the 331 instead of 11-12 lbs like with my setup on my non stroked 302, I'll likely see around 6-8 but make more power. It seems keeping the rpms no more than around 5500-6k it should be fine. If I make 500 i'll be happy. If it's at 535 or so like that guy made I might be a little more nervous but I don't drive my cars crazy really and especially all the time. I baby them some but sometimes have to show some suckers who's showing off a thing or two lol.....

You're teetering on the edge man. LoL

You call it.

Because it's so close, I might think like you are and feed it fuel like it was going to make 600 and then just dial it back at the tuner.

I still don't know the answer to your 340 bracket question. I've never had to mount one. I am familiar with a return line, tank extension, that's supposed to cut down on aeration in the tank (bubbles).
